Detection of weakly conserved ancestral mammalian regulatory sequences by primate comparisons (2007)

Wang, Qian-fei, Prabhakar, Shyam, Chanan, Sumita, Cheng, Jan-Fang, Rubin, Edward M, Boffelli, Dario

Abstract Background Genomic comparisons between human and distant, non-primate mammals are commonly used to identify cis -regulatory elements based on constrained sequence evolution. However, these...

Primate-specific evolution of an LDLR enhancer (2006)

Wang, Qian-fei, Prabhakar, Shyam, Wang, Qianben, Moses, Alan M, Chanan, Sumita, Brown, Myles, ...

Background Sequence changes in regulatory regions have often been invoked to explain phenotypic divergence among species, but molecular examples of this have been difficult to obtain. Results In this...

c-Myb Binds to a Sequence in the Proximal Region of the RAG-2 Promoter and Is Essential for Promoter Activity in T-Lineage Cells

Wang, Qian-Fei, Lauring, Josh, Schlissel, Mark S.

The RAG-2 gene encodes a component of the V(D)J recombinase which is essential for the assembly of antigen receptor genes in B and T lymphocytes. Previously, we reported that the transcription factor...

Wang, Qian-fei, Prabhakar, Shyam, Wang, Qianben, Moses, Alan M, Chanan, Sumita, Brown, Myles, ...

Analysis of primate-specific evolution of the LDL receptor enhancer demonstrates a molecular mechanism by which ancestral mammalian regulatory elements can evolve to perform new functions.

Detection of weakly conserved ancestral mammalian regulatory sequences by primate comparisons

Wang, Qian-fei, Prabhakar, Shyam, Chanan, Sumita, Cheng, Jan-Fang, Rubin, Edward M, Boffelli, Dario

Intra-primate genome comparisons identify functional modules that are undetected by comparisons with non-mammalian genomes.
